Hi all - I write this very sheepishly because I really messed up... I have a nice LE South African Voignier Chenin Blanc Rousanne kit that I was unkind to. This is about my 10th kit, and I was in a hurry (mistake #1) a few months ago and was doing some maintenance tasks on several kits in one day. Do you know where this is heading? I didn't have good labels on my carboys (mistake #2 - FIXED now!) and thought I was working on a more-recently-started kit, and added the sorbate pack for that kit to this one (which already had been sorbated) (BIG mistake #3). Also the K-Meta pack. So - I have been in such a funk about this that I've put off trying to figure out what to do about it. I did splash rack this a few times to work on the extra K-Meta issue, but after doing some research on this site, it looks like my only recourse for the extra sorbate is to blend with another un-sorbated wine. So here is my question - I don't think I can get another box of this kit anymore. What would be an acceptable new kit to eventually blend this with, without degrading the quality of what I already have? I started this kit 6 months ago, and it is now bulk aging waiting for me to figure out what to do. Any suggestions for rehab (I assume by blending) would be very much appreciated! I plan on doing a few more splash rackings to dissipate the extra K-Meta (I added a 5 g packet instead of the 1.5 g I should have at its stage in life when I did this). Sigh...
Thanks...
Thanks...
